Just about everything, I got off of eBay... I got really good deals on most of it. Paid too much for only a couple items, but "just HAD to have them"

I really wanted a full Superbe Pro gruppo, but that was (and still is) just too much money... So I opted for classic '80s stuff (Royal Gran Compe's, and Specialized components to give it the feel of a bike that was made to hit a price point.

The color is somewhat washed out in the pics. It is a deeper, richer looking Aqua than what you see. It's MUCH prettier in person!
Cool, I totally agree with your logic.

What did that Specialized/Nitto quill stem cost you? I have one sitting here off my Allez that's identical and I would have gladly given it to you had I known you needed one. I hope you didn't pay a fortune for it, but I suspect it's worth very little.
